Chapter 18 Lin Chenghe
"Of course!" Bai Xiao did not hesitate at all. This behavior surprised Lin Chenghe slightly, and then nodded slightly.
In fact, Bai Xiao really has nothing to worry about. If it were yesterday, she herself was eager to find out the secret hidden by the pocket watch. With an acquaintance like Lin Chenghe, a father like Lin Chenghe, who helped find the answer, of course she would not be able to ask for it. But now, although she has changed her original intention and wanted to keep the secret, it coincidentally that the phoenix in the pocket watch has been integrated into her body and has become an ordinary pocket watch, so she is not afraid that Lin Chenghe will see anything.
It seemed that she was not open and honest enough to hide it. She simply took out her pocket watch generously and neatly and handed it to Lin Chenghe.
Lin Chenghe took it from Bai Xiao, immediately took it in his hand and looked it carefully, then handed it to Wei Jiamin's hand, and asked her to check it carefully. After a while, the two exchanged their eyes, and Lin Chenghe understood and said, "Bai Xiao, if you guessed it wrong, you should be from the Bai family in the capital."
Bai Xiao was a little surprised: "Uncle Lin, how do you know?"
Lin Chenghe smiled, and did not answer directly, but asked, "Who is Bai Sihong you?"
"He is my grandfather." Bai Xiao could hear his grandfather's name from Lin Chenghe's mouth.
"Interesting, you are actually Bai Sihong's grandchild."
"I don't know if your father is Bai Zhendong, the second son of the Bai family, or the eldest son of Bai Zhenye? I remember that Mr. Bai's youngest daughter is still young, and obviously she can't give birth to a child as old as you."
Bai Xiao was even more surprised. Unexpectedly, Lin Jian's father Lin Chenghe knew not only her grandfather, but also her father, uncle and sister-in-law. In this way, it should be considered the old friend of her Bai family.
"My father Bai Zhendong." Bai Xiao said seriously.
"Are you his child?"
Lin Chenghe looked at Bai Xiao seriously and muttered: "I didn't expect that Brother Zhendong still has a seedling like you."
Then he nodded: "But no wonder, since you are Bai Zhendong's son, then all this makes sense. If I was not wrong, this pocket watch should have been blessed with a spell for protection. The night before yesterday was the spell that was inspired to save you from the hand of the paper-killer."
Seeing Bai Xiao’s face appearing confused, Lin Chenghe explained: “The curse is a spell that the spirit controls blessing objects in a special way. You can understand it as a kind of Taoist technique. The most famous one is the talisman technique of Zhengyi of Longhu Mountain, which is a spell carved on the talisman paper.”
"The same is true for your pocket watch, but generally the curse that is blessed on the objects is a one-time thing and will be invalid afterwards." Lin Chenghe nodded and handed over the pocket watch carved by the phoenix to Bai Xiao's hand. "If you take the pocket watch back, this is already an ordinary pocket watch, but it should be good to keep it as a souvenir."
Bai Xiao nodded silently.
Lin Chenghe’s remarks are reasonable and convincing.
